The footsteps moved lightly, slowly and orderly, looking at the back of Li Zhutou, Xu Lin's brows furrowed, and he couldn't help but secretly think that this person was as cunning as a fox, and his mind was even more different from ordinary people, and he must not be taken lightly.
The breeze is swaying, the coolness is blowing, the air by the lake, there is a cold smell of water, the green leaves and willow branches that will cross the eyes are gently brushed away, and on the side of the lake in the distance, an old man and a young man are still gently putting the river lantern paper boat in their hands.
As if she felt something, the Xu woman raised her eyes slightly at this time, glanced at this side, and then lowered her head as if she had not seen it, and continued to place the paper boat in her hand.
Li Zhutou's eyelids also jumped when the Xu woman just looked up, and the eyes in his eyes were even more unpredictable, and when the corners of the bearded and sloppy mouth were also slightly upturned, there was a playful smile.
Xu Lin followed behind Li Zhutou, not noticing the change between the two, and was still entangled in what happened just now.
The immovable bloodless heart is the most sensitive to the breath of the living, and over the years, as Xu Lin's cultivation has continued to climb, the acuity of the unmovable bloodless heart has also rapidly upgraded.
Besides, in addition to not moving the bloody heart, isn't there also a sword heart?
Kenshin Tongming's perception of the general environment is extremely subtle, and compared to the coldness of the Blood God Son, it is extremely applicable to the overall scope, especially in the change of breath.
If these two supernatural powers are combined, then in an environment, with Xu Lin as the center, any wind and grass around it, especially for the living creatures in this range, Xu Lin should be able to feel it at the first time, but in Fangcai, he can be unaware of He Li's arrival?
Martial arts refining is to push one's physique to an extreme, and Xu Lin has also heard of the saying that the body is as light as a swallow and there is no trace of stepping on snow, but what about the breath? There is also the flow of blood in his body, it stands to reason that it should be within the range that Xu Lin can detect, but Li Zhutou in front of him has done something that makes Xu Lin very depressed.
It's the gap in cultivation, Xu Lin, who can't figure it out, can only attribute these to the difference in the realm, thinking about it like this, it is logical.
Xu Lin, who had thought clearly, looked up at the front at this time, and Li Zhutou walked in front of the Xu woman and the little monk of Wuwei, and stopped.
"Wood can be a boat on the water, paper can also be a boat to float on the water, Mrs. Xu, how long do you think this river lantern paper boat can float?"
Without waiting for the Xu woman to reply, the little monk Wuwei beside her, a trace of unhappiness appeared on her face, raised her eyes and glared at Li Zhutou and said, "What do you mean!"
Put a river lantern paper boat on the water, Xu Shi watched it float slightly on the water, swaying back and forth, there was a trace of gloom on his face, but it was fleeting, and then he took out a paper boat and said coldly: "The paper boat is like a moth to a fire when it enters the water, and the result is already doomed, but people live in the world, isn't it the same?"
Putting the paper boat in her hand on the water again, the Xu woman raised her eyes, looked at Li Zhutou who was standing on the side and said: "Although this result has long been known, people have not continued to live, just because they have such and such hopes, what about this hope? ”
Xu Lin looked at the Xu woman in surprise, and Li Zhutou didn't care about the expression of the little monk who was inactive, but he chuckled and said: "There is some truth, but these so-called truths, although everyone can understand them, but some things, even if they are understood, do they still have to continue to do it?"
"How can people forget their feelings!" The little monk Wuwei finally couldn't help but say at this time, looking at Li Zhutou's indifferent smile, he was even more angry in his heart, and when he wanted to say more, he was pulled by the Xu woman.
The woman of the Xu family stood up with some difficulty, and ignored Li Zhu. Instead, he looked at the waves above the lake, and after looking at it for a while, he turned his head to look at Li Zhutou and said, "How can Li Dazhutou have time to come and see my lonely old woman today." ”
"It is said that in our Lingzhou territory, the release pool of this Guangyuan Temple is the most famous, ordinary people dare not come, I want to come but always entangled in official business, today I wanted to take a look at this release pool in the name of handling cases, but I didn't expect to meet a few. ”
The little monk of Wuwei snorted coldly, but his face was angry at this Li Zhutou, obviously still angry at what Li Zhutou said just now, for Yuande's feelings, I am afraid that he is the only one who is the deepest.
turned his head to Wuwei on the other side, and suddenly saw Xu Lin behind Li Zhutou, nodded slightly, and said hello.
Xu Lin smiled in return, which was regarded as a return gift, and then this gaze fell on the Xu woman, who also nodded slightly, and said to Li Zhutou: "This is also a coincidence, so I won't disturb Li Dazhutou to enjoy the lake and scenery, and the old body will leave." ”
Saying that, the Xu woman pulled the little monk Wuwei to get up and leave, but was stopped by Li Zhutou and said: "There are still a few river lantern paper boats on this ground that have not been released, so let's finish and leave, I am also bored alone." ”
The Xu woman's brows furrowed slightly, and when she was about to say more, Li Zhutou reached out and picked up the river lamp on the ground, put it lightly on the water, and then said with deep meaning: "I heard that when Wuwei was young, it was Abbot Yuande who picked it up on the side of the road, but is it true?"
Xu Lin's eyebrows were raised, and Wuwei's face was even more ugly, and then he replied angrily: "So what?"
"It is said that saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, why can't good people live long, and their end is so miserable, this karma is sometimes a little deviant!"
Seeing Li Zhutou's expression of understanding as if talking to himself, everyone fell silent all of a sudden.
"Is there a cause and effect, the old body has lived a lot of years and has not understood it, but when he saw Li Da Catcher, the old body suddenly thought, whether there is this retribution or not, I am afraid it depends on how Li Da Catcher acts. ”
After saying this, the Xu woman pulled Wuwei, who had already blushed, and turned away, and when she passed by Xu Lin, she didn't look at it, and left in a hurry.
And Li Zhutou put a paper boat on the surface of the water, but there was no obstruction, just staring blankly at the lake.
At some point, bursts of white mist appeared on the rippling green lake, and what stood out at this time was the river lantern paper boat floating on it.
The flickering candle flame flickered in the white mist, like a pair of blood-red eyes, but between the light and the extinction, they stared coldly at the corner of the lakeshore.
"When I was a child, my mother once said to me, don't go to this Guangyuan Temple to play, because there is a very powerful monster living there and likes to eat people, I didn't believe it at first, but then I believed it, does Brother Xu know why?"
Xu Lin glanced at Li Zhutou who suddenly sighed strangely, but when he thought about the meaning of these words, Xu Lin couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why?"
The woman of the Xu family pulled the little monk Wuwei who had already disappeared into the mist, and looking at the direction in which the two disappeared, Li Zhutou turned his head and fell his gaze on the undulating lake of the mist.
"One day, my father and his friends met in Guangyuan Temple, and they wanted to drink and reminisce about the strange scenery on the lake, but there was no trace of them again, so I began to believe that there might really be a big monster living in this Guangyuan Temple. ”
Xu Lin, who seemed to understand something at once, suddenly frowned and said, "You want to wait for the night of the full moon?"
With a hehehe, Li Zhutou stood up slowly, and suddenly threw a stone that he picked up in his hand at some point into the water.
"Look at the Yuande abbot, as you said, I think it was the devil's doing, but I have examined his body, this Yuande monk doesn't have any cultivation, just an ordinary monk, I don't understand how an ordinary person can offend the body of the devil's way. ”
Seeing Xu Lin frowning slightly, Li Zhutou approached Xu Lin and said: "There is another point, what happened to the abbot of Yuande is really too miserable, can kill someone like that, even if it is a person in the Demon Dao, his cultivation is afraid that it is very high, and a person in the Demon Dao with a very high cultivation will do this to an ordinary person?"
"So you thought of the release pool?" said Xu Lin with a raised brow.
Li Zhutou nodded slightly and said: "Yes, the legends of this release pond in the realm of Lingzhou are various, but no matter which version it is, there is one thing that is the same, that is, this place is definitely a fierce place." ”
"But doesn't it mean that only on the night of the full moon will the mutation of this release pool be born?"
Looking at Xu Lin's suspicious face, Li Zhutou sneered and said, "Who said that monsters can only appear on the night of the full moon?"
Xu Lin was stunned, and the expression on his face was also a little embarrassed and smiled, but then he said: "I'm afraid the idea of catching heads is more than that." ”
Li Zhutou had already walked past Xu Lin at this time, and continued to walk towards the way he came, and after walking a few more steps, Li Zhutou said with a smile: "Maybe you can know tomorrow." ”
Watching the back disappear into the mist, Xu Lin stood alone on the shore of the lake, and turned his eyes to look at the misty lake, and most of the candles on the river lantern paper boat in front of him had been extinguished. And in the fog in the distance, there was no light to be seen, and I guess those paper boats had already sunk into the water.
Any person and thing will have a result, these are predestined for a long time, so what can people change?
Walking on some muddy paths, breathing in the moist air, and experiencing the coldness around him, what can people change? Xu Lin couldn't help but ask himself over and over again, and then thought, is it just a slightly different ending?
Everyone dies! This is a theorem! It is also a common sense!
But there is another thing in this world called cultivating immortals, this is a thing against the sky, and it is also something that Xu Lin is pursuing, and then glanced back at the misty lake, Xu Lin suddenly groaned and said, "Tomorrow?"
Xu Lin's face gradually sank, if Yuande's death was not done by the bloodstained Daoist, if the mutation in the lake was not a treasure, but a monster, then should he go to this troubled water?
